Woyww #174 - woolly stuff

So, this week we have visitors. Huffle's Mum and Dad from England. My craft space is one half of the loft and their space is the order side of the loft. I am not sure how much time I will spend up there but this is how it looks at the moment.....

A pile of crochet round squares. Enough for a front and a few more for the back. (Also purchased a new cushion for this project). I haven't done too many since last week. My sock that I started again after I went back to my knitting group and a lovely thick woolly scarf/cowl. This has been knitted once (well probably more than that) and then I undid it because I only wanted to use one ball of wool and I felt it was not long enough and maybe too wide. I am using a basket weave pattern that I made up. (I'm sure I haven't invented it but I mean I'm not following a pattern).

So that's me for this week. Short and sweet (ooh just like me).

P.S. I had a really good tidy up this week. Wool is in boxes, sewing things put away, magazines nicely stacked. All I need now are some lovely shelves and they can all be displayed where I can see them. Still, you can't rush perfection.

Love the circles ...I had a waistcoat made of them in the '60s.How I wish i could crochet ...I have tried and tried ...the worst bit is that I could 40 years ago!!!!You sound as though your stash is very organized now ...thats what I need ...organization. xx#39

So you're a three project at once kinda gal then! If I put one project down to start another, I'll never get back to the original one again I'm afraid, I just don't do WIP's! Hope you still manage to get some crafty time in with your visitors! Sock's coming on a treat.

You're like me, many, varied projects on the go all at once!! I love knitting patterns where you don't have to think, you can almost do it mindlessly - now that's far more meditative than bloomin' zentangling!! Love the crochet, wish I could do that....Hugs, LLJ #1 xx

Love your desk, not least because of the spotty cover. You seemed to working on a lot of projects all at the same time but clearly you are ably supervised by your little knitted companions :) Hope you have a good week and happy WOYWW. Elizabeth x #49

About Me

I relocated from the UK in November 2011 to Canada with my three bears. My husband (huffle), and my two little bears, Small (12) and Smallest (8). We have now moved to the "Hamlet". It's an exciting and scary time for this little family.
I love crafting, baking, gardening, reading, blogging, all things Italian, tins, winnie the pooh and good friends.
Thanks for visiting :0). I love to read people's comments.

BUTTERFINGERS

Smallest is recreating the inspiration for the name of this blog. An eccentric competitive dad shouted 'butterfingers' at the top of his voice to his 2 small children dropping catches from his steepling hits
